    The 5th Annual West Kootenay Glacier Challenge Scotiabank MS Bike Tour Courtesy of: Nelson & District Chamber of Commerce 91 Baker Street Nelson B.C. Ph. 250 352 3433 [email protected] discovernelson.com Scotiabank MS Bike Tour August 20-21, 2016 The tour starts in New Denver… Slocan Valley… New Denver- Founded upon the discovery of silver in the mountains adjacent to Slocan Lake in 1891, prospectors from the United States came flooding up to the New Denver region in 1892 to stake their claims, and gather their riches. New Denver quickly grew to a population of 500 people with 50 buildings. In 1895 this growing community built government offices and supply houses for the Silvery Slocan Mines. “A Simple Curve” was filmed in and around the Slocan Valley and was debuted in 2005. The story is of a young man born to war resister parents. War Resisters- In 1976 as many as 14,000 Americans came to the Slocan Valley in an attempt to avoid the Vietnam War. About half of those who made the move were self-proclaimed war resisters, many of whom settled in the Kootenay Region. Nikkei Internment Memorial Centre This exclusive interpretive centre features the Japanese-Canadian internment history of New Denver during the Second World War. The camp is said to have held close to 1500 internees during the war. The memorial centre opened in 1994, which showcases several buildings including the community hall and three restored tar paper shacks with Japanese gardens.

  • Geofile 1997-02 Slocan Mining Camp and Area (082K03, 082F14)
    GeoFile 1997-02 Slocan Mining Camp and Area (082K03, 082F14) By: B.N. Church (P.Eng.) and L.D. Jones (P.Geo.), 1997 Originally created as a web article in 1997, this document was re-released, with slight modifications, as a GeoFile in 2019. Abstract The Slocan map area of southeastern British Columbia contains 271 documented mineral occurrences, including 125 in the Slocan City area and 123 in the Slocan Camp area. The area is within the Selkirk Mountains and includes the communities of New Denver, Silverton, and Slocan City on the shores of Slocan Lake (Figure 1). Figure 1: Mineral Occurrences of the Slocan Camp and Area (082K03, 082F14) BC Geological Survey Mining History The Slocan area is one of the oldest mining camps in the province which flourished after the turn of the century and has continued to produce intermittently ever since. The history in the West Kootenays dates back to the 1820s when the Bluebell deposit (082FNE043), near Riondel on Kootenay Lake was discovered. Active exploration began around 1865. In 1883, Thomas Hammil located the Lulu and Spring claims (082FNE148) at Ainsworth. In the late 1880’s, Jim Brennan, a prospector working west of Ainsworth, collected some high grade silver samples which sparked considerable interest in this new and virtually unexplored area. After initial interest at Sandon, prospectors extended their range of exploration to the south and west, discovering several deposits containing appreciable gold on Memphis Creek and locating the Dayton claim (082FNW173) in 1893 near Slocan City. During this period, the sustained mining activity throughout the Slocan area provided the incentive for the Canadian Pacific Railway to extend their line south and east from Nakusp to Kaslo and Cody in 1895, and connect Slocan City with the Nelson line in 1897.
